mrs.lotte - just my thoughts. I enquired for months re: when swimming lessons would re-start and if there was a waiting list. I was told September and no there was no waiting list. I went with friends and 3 children for a free swim Sunday....needless to say we lasted just 30min in the water as it was just too cold! Was told of the emrolment process for swimming lessons (no phone calls, no online booking, no afternoon/evening enrolment). I came with my 4 year old at approx 6pm (after work) Monday and stood there patiently before being told that all Ducklings, pre school and level 1 classes were fully booked!!! We were not the only ones leaving dissapointedly on the 1st day of enrolment. I knew there would be a rush as we finally have a new pool but seriously, children of working parents did seem to lose out. Surely there must be a better system! I was also left dissapointed by the opening hours of the creche. Was told 9.00-13.30 (Mon-Fri). I'm hoping this is not correct as it would be the same old story of no provision for Sat/Sun for working parents that want to stay in shape too! :( Anyway enough moaning. The centre does look great and I'm sure that when the gym is finished and the temperature of the pool is sorted it will be even better!
